Many years ago, my  then 11 year old nephew and 14 year old niece, who have not been raised in any church, attended church with me. Afterwards they both told me that the preacher presented a god that scared them, one, if true, they would never want to believe in. They said to my wife, “the preacher described a different god than uncle Tim teaches.” Do you think Jesus would be happy if we present Him in such a way that the children would not want to be with Him or know Him?

I wanted to know if you had much info or guidance to any resources that speak to the significance of Sabbath being on the 7th day. Obviously 7 is a design template that God founded the world upon, but I guess more of what I’m getting at is what is the significance of Saturday, the original 7th day Sabbath versus keeping Sunday every 7 days. Because even though the majority of the “Christian” world does not keep a Sabbath(and that includes SDA’s) some do and I’m not convinced, that outside of the fact that Sunday has the history of being…

Recently, I decided to do a search for “Father, my blood” on the EG White estate website and got 10 hits. Until I get the 2 references below resolved, Jesus appears to be requesting something from the Father and getting a response
